Default What will you hunt this fall??

It may be a little early for some and others may be looking forward to spring hunts (include those to). But Colorado's big game license deadline is just over a week away and I was curious as to what and where all of you plan to hunt this fall and how you plan to hunt whatever that is?
Also.....what kind of tags are these? Do you have to draw through a lottery? Is it over the counter? ETC.

I myself, hopfully will draw a Bull Elk tag for unit 66 1st season rifle. Thats the big one for me!!! But I also have put in for a Bear tag,Dear tag and will purchase an over-the-counter muzzleloader cow tag. These will all be in Colorado (where I live).I also will be hunting antelope in Wyoming!
If I don't draw the Bull tag then I will muzzleload for bull,otc rifle cow and the others will stand.

Archery elk gets goin at the end of august so i'll hit that. If i don't get one then i'll put down the bow and pick up the rifle and hunt them in september. By that time bear and deer will be opened up in certain zones. Bear ends around the middle of october or so. I will go after some geese and grouse also. Then deer opens up on the farmland in november -dedember. Basically from august 25th to decmber 5th i am hunting every week if possible.

I'll be bow hunting whitetails up in the northwoods of Wisconsin through the first week of November. (I know, it's not like mountain hunting)...BUT, I will be in the Bob Marshall Wilderness (MT) for a late season elk/mulie hunt. I fell into this opportunity a few weeks ago, and at the last minute, we got our liscense and outfitter cert out in a fed ex package with a deadline of 3/15 at midnight. I called to follow up and the package was signed at the fish, wildlife and parks office on 3/15 at 10:00 AM, so I think I 'm good to go. The very last part of November, packing in on horses 15 miles. Could have snow up to my arm pits, but could also catch a good movement of animals. Been with this guy before and they run a heck of an outfit....looking forward to it, big time.


Glob306 - I hunted unit 65 last fall in the muzzleloader season, mid Sept. Got a nice 5x5 on the fourth day. No guides and worked that sucker for about 45 minutes before he finally showed. One shot with the front stuffer and he tipped over!!

After the bear hunt is over, I'll be chasing walleye and grouse on the same trip in Sept, then moose in October and deer in November. All in Ontario.

I will try to draw tags for:

Bull, or Cow Elk.
Pronghorn
Mule Deer
Black Bear
Turkey

If I don't draw for Mule Deer, Black Bear, or Turkey I will purchase over the counter tags for these species.

Good luck on the draws.

This fall's season will start with squirrels, and deer with a bow in September. In November we're going Caribou hunting in Quebec on one of those cheap winter hunts. December will be spent chasing the elusive whitetail in the rifle season. Maybe if I'm lucky I'll get drawn for a Maine Moose tag!
Good luck with all your drawings.
